Theologian Miroslav Volf to speak on reconciliation Feb. 8

"Forgiveness, Reconciliation and Justice" will be the theme of a public lecture by Miroslav Volf, an internationally recognized human rights advocate and theologian, at U.Va. Feb. 8.

Volf, the Henry B. Wright Professor of Systematic Theology at the Yale Divinity School, will speak and lead a discussion from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the Dome Room of the Rotunda.

A native of Croatia who has lectured widely in the U.S. and Europe, he is known for his penetrating reflections on the Yugoslav conflict and an ability to be heard by both theological liberals and conservatives. Volf's talk is the first annual Capps Lecture in Christian Theology, sponsored by the Project on Lived Theology in U.Va.'s Department of Religious Studies and by Theological Horizons.
